Oscar-winning composer Justin Hurwitz has found himself back in the awards race this season, having garnered both a Golden Globe win and an Oscar nomination for his lavish Babylon score. Creating music that complemented the decadence and destructive glamor of 1920s Hollywood found in Damien Chazelle’s Babylon required a lot of experimentation.

There’s a lot of Middle Eastern and Latin flavors, orchestral cues, and a lot of circus sounds in the score.”
Hurwitz talks more about his frequent collaboration with Chazelle, taking himself seriously as an artist, and crafting the perfect amount of cacophony for Babylon.
